La Puerta de Agave Reposado
Artisanal tequila from San Juanito de Escobedo, Jalisco.
Six months in American oak barrels soften the intensity of the agave and leave a silky texture, with vanilla, walnut, and caramel at the front. Master Distiller Antonio Gaytán Barboza directs the full process: cooking in a masonry oven, crushing of the agave, wild fermentation, distillation in copper stills, and aging in oak.

Artisanal tequila from San Juanito de Escobedo, Jalisco.
Puerta de Agave is a tequila made by hand, born from the working hands of a town with history and tradition.
Its process keeps the methods of traditional tequila: cooking in masonry ovens, wild fermentation, and distillation in copper stills.
From that comes a tequila with character, a defined aroma, a clear alcoholic presence, and a balanced body.
It is drunk neat and works equally well in cocktails, especially in clay cups, one of the signature drinks of the Ruta del Tequila: tequila with fresh grapefruit, orange, lime, and lemon, served in a clay cup.
Part of its inspiration comes from that Jalisco custom.
